Listen Later

In this episode, Mark has a fascinating discussion with the dynamic and talented Ross Haley about entrepreneurship in the Cannabis space.  Ross shares a little about his journey that includes growing up in a Northern California community of cannabis growers, to an early job selling Kirby vacuums, to tremendous success via the sale of his company, General Hydroponics, to Scott’s Miracle Gro (SMG) for $130M in 2015.     Ross is now CEO of Lbs. Distribution, a B2B company focused on the cannabis supply chain.  Along with the typical challenges of company building such as hiring the right people and optimizing operations, Ross talks about the obstacles he continues to overcome in an industry that is still considered illegal by the Federal government.  There are a lot of business and life lessons to be learned from Ross in this episode including key takeaways to “stay in the game” and “never give up.”
